SUPPORTING lgbq+ CLIENTS seeking pregnancy referrals

Description

In this 2-hour interactive training, participants will consider the challenges lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer clients face when seeking care for an unintended pregnancy, including provider bias, environmental barriers, and lack of provider training on LGBQ+ identities. Participants will learn how these challenges are made more complicated when a client holds additional marginalized identities. Participants will gain knowledge to apply best practices in serving LGBQ+ clients who are seeking care for unintended pregnancy.

Learning Objectives

  • Describe at least one factor that may contribute to increased incidence of unintended pregnancy for LGBQ+ individuals
  • Describe at least one factor that may impact a LGBQ+ individual’s ability to access reproductive healthcare
  • Explain at least two best practices in supporting LGBQ+ individuals in accessing reproductive healthcare
  • State at least one intended practice change in referring LGBQ+ individuals to abortion services

“I think dealing with stigma was the most useful thing, and just giving folks the tools to work through that. I think what was really helpful, there was an exercise where we were looking at a situation and deciding where the bias was in that situation. People didn’t realize that some of that bias that we don’t notice or understand would be there.”
